If somber is playing as steak I think steak needs to play as somber. It’s only fair.

what do i find scummy about over-explaining a vote which is sk-hunting and then later backpedaling on that vote....?

gee idk

I'm often accused of appearing scummy so I don't care, but being scummy for a "serious" vote on someone who hadn't even posted in the game yet is a new one. So keep grasping at those (disposable) straws I guess.

Merk posting jokingly makes me uncomfortable for some reason. I know it's early so there's not a lot to go on yet, I'm not reading him for it but it's not behavior I'm used to seeing from him.

I was considering playing as somber after he said he was playing as steak, but I just can't summon that level of scathing disregard for societal norms

Merk is giving me the feeling he told his scumbros he was going to show how you can be blatantly scummy but overcome suspicion by sheer force of personality. Perhaps somber said he would accept that challenge and try to one up him.

he was basically doing the same last game, although I think his posts definitely feel more earnest this time

I didn't say I am feeling suspicious towards him, I've only played with him a couple times but he doesn't usually joke around a whole lot. It's not an indication of his alignment, just an observation.

I feel like you all are talking about dog merk. This is kong merk. That experienced changed him.

I have zero tell on his alignment but messing around or just trying new things, especially early in the game, has been pretty consistent lately.

merk's jokes feel very different than town merk last game and are a flavor of self-deprecating "haha i'm scum guys but not really j/k" that rubs me the wrong way, at least being played up as much as he did

So you *are* indicating suspicion on merk from it? Maerlyn seemed to want to differentiate that it was purely an observation, no alignment reading from it

Why should I keep it to myself? I know most of you have played with merk a lot so you know his meta better than I do. I'm still developing that so I noticed something different to me and commented on it. I'm not sure why you seem to feel bothered by it though.

Mafia edit: or putting words in my mouth by saying he's being "aloof"
